Funding

Where does The Foundation’s funding come from?

The Foundation has two primary sources of funding: net proceeds from the TPNA
Home Tour every other year and contributions from individuals. For each two year
cycle (from one Home Tour to the next), approximately 85% of The Foundation’s
funding is due to having very successful TPNA events. Recently, we have seen individual contributions increase as a result of better education about what we do and the tax-favored status we have as a 501(c)(3) organization.
